Almost Here!

Feb 25, 2013

Hi, my name is Kelly, and I am a 35 year-old female from Alabama.  I have struggled with my weight for the past 14 years.  I have lost weight, then gained it all back plus some, several times.  My weight has held me back in so many ways.  I won't even show my face in my small hometown (I don't live there anymore but my family does) because I am so ashamed.  I have never accepted myself after I put on the weight.  I always had hope, however, that I would lose it on my own one day.  When I stepped on the scale this past summer at my heaviest weight, I was a girl without hope.  I had never ever considered weight loss surgery until that day.  Here I am 7 months later only a couple of days away from one of the toughest things I have ever done....be courageous enough to get my life back and to live a life I deserve.  I am terrified as I often let fear and my expectations that the worst will always happen get the best of me.  I am taking the biggest leap of faith I have ever taken.  I have prayed about it, and I just have to put this in God's hands.
